RHA Video made by Graeme Wells with Sarah McAuliffe Curator
The documentary starts with her astonishing Exhibition and then
takes us on a journey to meet ten other artists, experts, educators,
and carers who enhance our understanding of dementia through
their own experience with their loved ones and how their own art
helped them come to terms with the illness, its impact and what the
future may hold.
The documentary uses art, music, dance, words and a visually
driven narrative to engage the viewer in a unique experience to
create a kaleidoscopic narrative that allows us to look at dementia
from an integrative perspective.
This will provide an emotionally resonant and visually
compelling exploration of dementia in Ireland. Through Debbie's art
and personal journey, the documentary aims to shed light on a
critical issue, inspire viewers, and contribute to the dialogue
surrounding dementia. It will also emphasise the importance of
understanding, supporting, and finding new ways to approach the
challenges faced by those affected by the disease.
